Abstract

The subject application relates to a method and system for handling streaming data for a live streaming, and includes recording the streaming data for the live streaming; storing the streaming data as archive contents; and adding a transition segment in the archive contents. According to the subject application, the time for processing the archive contents is saved and the user experience may be enhanced.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for handling streaming data for a live streaming, comprising:
 recording the streaming data for the live streaming;   storing the streaming data as archive contents; and   adding a transition segment in the archive contents.   
     
     
         2 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 1 , further comprising
 obtaining a request for entering the live streaming;   providing with the archive contents when the streaming data for the live streaming is inaccessible.   
     
     
         3 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the transition segment includes information related to the archive contents before or after the transition segment.   
     
     
         4 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the transition segment is added upon a portion of the archive contents,   the transition segment includes information related to the portion of the archive contents.   
     
     
         5 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 4 , wherein
 the transition segment includes information for the viewer to get access to or skip the portion of the archive contents.   
     
     
         6 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the transition segment replaces a portion of the archive contents,   duration of the transition segment is the same as or less than duration of the portion of the archive contents.   
     
     
         7 . The method for handling streaming data for a live streaming according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the transition segment includes information such as recommended streamers, advertisements, sales, news, questionnaires or the like.
